Daniel De León, a doctoral student in the Texas A&M University Poultry Science, is a first-generation college student. He did not initially plan to attend college, but his mind changed once he was introduced to poultry judging. De León’s skills earned him a $10,000 scholarship, and he decided to head to college.

The composed and dedicated doctoral student believes education is critical to the livestock exhibition process. Therefore, he makes it a point to converse with each exhibitor and pass on his knowledge to the next generation.
